WHEN A LOVE AFFAIR IS THROUGH
(Neil Sedaka)
Green fields and blue
days and bright shining smiles
Midsummer madness that clings all the while.
Remember we were happy then,
Now I can't
remember where or when
We had our magic carpet ride
But all that's left are tears inside.
Now it seems that all
I have
Are shattered dreams, no photographs.
And I suppose that's how it goes
When a love affair is through.
Memories
that still remain,
Gazing through my window pane
I see your face, what can I do,
When a love affair is through.
Footsteps
in the snow
Walking hand in hand,
Laughing in the snow
In our short-lived wonderland.
Dark clouds of winter
just drift past my mind.
Cold, bleak and grey days are all I can find.
I sit here softly in my room
Trying to find
the notes to form a tune,
A tune to bring you back again,
But I'm content remembering when.
Now it seems that
all I have
Are shattered dreams, no photographs.
And I suppose that's how it goes
When a love affair is through.
I
sit by the phone now and think, should I call?
I dial your old number, there's no ring at all.
I mustn't think of yesterday
Maybe
I'm just better off that way
And if I look, someday I'll find
The strength to give me peace of mind.
Memories
that still remain,
Gazing through my window pane
I see your face, what can I do,
When a love affair is through.
I
see your face, that lovely face,
Yes, our love affair is through.
